    If you really need to scratch an itch and play a future type game with spaceships, and want to do it for almost no money, then play it via gamepass. Do NOT BUY the game.

    As for RPG style, choices and graphics.... this is a 0 out of 10. Graphics (environment), NPC faces, animations, etc are absolutely last gen or worse. Think Xbox360 at worst and bad Xbox One at best. Textures on people, ships and building can look really good. Just don't expect the foliage or people to look that way. Don't get me started on the constant loading for everything you do.
    Any choices you think you have, think again. NO choices affect anything. Your skill choices and your actual actions that you think may affect dialogues or quests NEVER affect anything. Don't believe me and want proof, search for the MarcoStyle youtuber, as he explains what is happening. I don't have a youtube channel or the time for that. Factor in the insane bugs, think Cyberpunk 2077 release, except we know that that game was released 2 yrs too early and Starfield was given almost an EXTRA year to polish this junk.
    Overall, this game rates higher than a zero because they *could* fix the bugs and maybe improve textures and I really liked the ships, despite not being able to use them like I thought I would.    … Expand

    It is enough to read the false reviews of all the Sony fanboys and understand that the game is really great. It's very simple if the game was really bad then the Sony fanboys wouldn't bother to bomb the site here.

Enemies are bullet sponges and the guns do not have any weight to them. Then there are the many bugs that people have come to expect from Bethesda. All in all I would not recommend this game. Do yourself a favor and play the old mass effect games, they are so much better. If you do want to try this game out, just get game pass.

    The biggest problem with this game is that it doesn't know what it wants to be, it tries to cover all bases and falls short almost every single time. They give you planets you can't explore, a ship you can't really fly, and shallow companions with almost no personality.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I cannot recommend this game right now, don’t waste your money on it @ full price.

    It baffles me how Bethesda can screw up this much, this could have been a GOTY.

    --> The bad

    Let’s start with the obvious: the game is full of bugs, not “Skyrim launch” level of bugs but a lot of bugs nevertheless. A game of this magnitude is expected to have them, but please don’t go on the media bragging about having “so few bugs”. They are common, they are everywhere, from visual bugs to quest bugs, even whole ship fleets missing that prevent you to move on with your quest (fixed after game restart).

    Second, the game has KOTOR (2003) space travel mechanics. With so many examples on the market (Elite Dangerous, NMS, etc.) it’s amazing how they couldn’t implement an in/out atmosphere landing. It’s just cut scenes all over the place: for landing, for docking, even riding the freaking metro. You cannot fly on the planet surface, you cannot fly into the planet, all you can do is a cut-scene here, a cut-scene there. Want to move around and explore the planet? Get ready to run marathons. No ground vehicles, no flying, just running - you’ll obviously end up just fast traveling everywhere. And the loadings… They are fast on NVME’s, but almost every door, everything you do is a freaking loading screen that cuts the immersion.

    Third, they screwed up big on the map, inventory & management. Moving items from your character to the companion requires about 5/6 actions, one of them being to open a dialogue with them. They did it right on Fallout and Skyrim, no excuses here. The map is a huge mess, I’m 30+ hours in and still doesn’t feel right, it’s not intuitive, it’s confusing, lacks consistency and the game has no minimap.

    Moving on, space combat is “ok”, a hugely simplified version of Elite Dangerous combat/ship maneuverability, still, more satisfying than the shooting mechanics on ground. Speaking of it, the weapons feel & effects are hugely unsatisfying. Nothing wrong with the weapons stats, types, etc., there is a lot of gun variety, they simply couldn’t do what (for example) Battlebit did, a game made by half-a-dozen friends where the weapons just feel amazing. NPC AI is a joke, the game feels way too easy on normal and the NPC intelligence doesn’t scale with it. Be ready to deal with bugged enemies aiming at the ground, hiding in plain sight or aliens running indefinitely into walls.

    The RPG side of it is Fallout 4 level of fail, you don’t have freedom to do anything out of the rulebook. Try to shoot shop people? Immortal. Try to shoot anything that’s not a pure enemy or random generated outpost, bullets don’t affect them. Dialogue options? Vague and weak. Persuasion mechanics are a mess, all feels superficial like a big roller-coaster ride.

    Last but not least, the performance. I can’t complain here because thankfully I have a really good setup, but folks that aren’t this fortunately will have a shock with the game lack of optimization. And it’s not like you’ll find the best graphics ever, not even close. The textures are outdated, the face animations too, the game doesn’t even stretch its legs to scale with GPU/CPU power. I’m running everything on ultra @ 1440p and the game only uses 5GB of VRAM, so much untapped power. Graphics aren’t that important, but it’s the cherry on the top of everything I just stated.

    --> The good

    The soundtrack is amazing, Interstellar meets 2001 Space Odyssey, a pleasure to listen to it on max volume.
    Awesome quest variety and factions.
    Game is stable, never had a single crash.
    The crafting / ship customization is awesome.
    The feel of the game overall is “ok”, I’m getting immersed in the story, but I just get kicked out of it every 5 minutes because of the things stated above.

    --> Conclusion

    Bethesda left the hard work to the modders. A 200+ million project, hundreds of people working on it, a veteran studio with all the funding they could have asked for, it’s like they f***ed up on purpose and I’m mad about it because Bethesda did a lot of my favorite games, ever, and I used to LOVE this company. So – many – rookie – mistakes.

    Personally, I think they were graphically held-back by the Xbox Series S, since it is a Xbox/PC exclusive they had to make it work on that damn calculator (and we can see the results). Also, the game is 100% a console port, there are no native PC mechanics, which aren’t that difficult to implement on a single-player game…

    The game is “ok” but could have been a masterpiece and it makes me mad because of the lost opportunity. Perhaps one day it will, when everything is just properly refined. Just wait for the price to drop, wait for the patches to fix everything, wait for the godsend modders to do their magic.    … Expand

    I'll keep it short and sweet. Boring story, unintuitive map/travel system, stiff combat with horrible ai, dated animations and worst of all BAD optimization. I have a very modern rig and struggle to get 60 FPS on low/medium settings at 4k with the DLSS mod enabled. This game will probably be good in a year or so once the community fixes it.

It took me well over 10hrs to get my bearings and figure things out before I actually started enjoying the game. But once I did I can't put the game down now. It's a ridiculously big game with what might be an infinite replayability. There are a few gripes, crafting is kinda meh. And there are so many items you need for it with very rudimentary ways to track those items. It makes it difficult. In the end you have to just loot everything and fill up your very limited inventory and hope you got the correct items.

    Of course there's normal Bethesda bugs. Nothing game breaking. Just a bit of weird physics and npc legs getting stuck in doors and stuff.

    Runs over 60fps on high settings at 1440p on my 3070ti, and 50-60fps at ultra settings.

    Bottom line, if you like Bethesda games then you'll like this one...after you play for a little while. So get in there, learn how the star map works, learn how to build a ship and you'll be having a blast in no time.    … Expand

No obstante, otras novedades jugables, como la exploración por sectores separados, sus pantallas de carga para todo (aunque muy cortas), o todo lo que tiene que ver con las naves están en un nivel muy inferior, exceptuando su construcción y modificación que si me ha gustado.

    La historia principal te atrapa y te deja queriendo saber más, pero como cualquier otro juego de Bethesda, su historia sirve para aprender las mecánicas generales y servirte de guía por los diferentes lugares principales, donde terminarás encontrando otras tramas y sub-tramas y que en algunos casos por como te llegan (a veces aleatoriamente) y te apartan de la historia principal son tremendamente divertidas y uno de las razones principales que hacen los juegos de Bethesda tengan su sello especial dentro de los RPG.

    Gráficamente está muy bien, es su mejor obra en este sentido. La IA es muy mejorable y presenta los mismos errores que todos sus juegos anteriores y que se arrastran por el uso del mismo motor, que aunque tenga un buen lavado de cara su núcleo es obsoleto y deficiente en algunos aspectos, sobre todo los que tengan que ver con los personajes. La no presencia de DLSS influye bastante en su rendimiento, una decisión cuestionable en PC pues las tarjetas Nvidia tiene la mayor parte del mercado, pero eso es uno de los cientos en el futuro que la comunidad de Mods incluye e irá incluyendo para que este juego termine siendo mejor y más grande que en su salida.

Prefieren sacrificar la calidad de sus juegos y el tiempo de desarrollo por comodidad, por no ponerse a estudiar y mirar cómo mejorar o intentar estar cerca del estándar actual.

    Promises and Expectation:
    Trailers revealed "ride" and "go" anywhere on the planet which is not ride, you cant land and fly the spaceship to a planet. You stand in a point and rotate 360, it's point click fast travel with loading screen and animation. even indie space games on the market have seemless spaceship control and you can fly even on the planet atmosphere.
    You have spaceship which is basically loading screen animation, but no land vehicles (No you cant craft vehicle) so you have to walk 1000m of empty planet.

    Story:
    Bland and uninteresting, comparing to their old title. In skyrim your head was about to be chopped of and in Fallout 4 your love got killed and child taken out, comparing to those this story is pretty lame.

    Gameplay:
    Gunplay is same janky old creation engine gunplay with bullet sponge AI. Most of the AAA even AA and indies games has better gun play in their years old games. Seems like no AI or gunplay improvement even after 7 years of developement. they just add 4k space texture. No mechanics improvement. Some of the weapon customization is worse than fallout 4.

    Graphics and World Design:
    Texture improved but light doesn't. so graphics feels dated. Same layout and monochromic color of caves and rooms feels boring after a while.
    Planets are empty which devs say is realistive, but its empty in a repetitive way and planets got invisible wall so no you can't walk (which is already tiresome because of no vehicle and empty) through the entire planet.
    Enemy variety non existent, level 10 enemy means it is a bullet sponge, bullet sponge enemy difficulty, sometimes entire mag of your weapon doesn't do any significant damage to human enemy. And yes no locational damage so headshot means same as body shot.
    NPC and Character animations are so lifeless compared to other AAA, AA titles, facial expression non existent, its same old skyrim oblivion talking animation. No improvement.

    Bugs and Problems:
    NPC dont react to gun, even in skyrim NPC reacted to weapon but here, NO.
    Bugs are less than Fallout 76 which is horrible becuase common bugs of bethesda still exist, like NPC stuck or flying out through the texture
    Too many loading screen, Its 2023 and even some doors have loading screen. Fast travel puts you outside of the door so that you can go through a door which is another loading screen.
    Your character get easily encumbered

    ***Pros:
    Too ambious, sky, planets and moon looks amazing to gaze. spaceship and base customization seems ok. * you cant put one engine of spaceship to other tho. *you can create base on empty planets and bring your companion,
    Game plays like a fallout 4 mod, so if you are a bethesda fan and fallout 4 fan you will get enjoyment.

    There are other issuses too. like game is extremely slow place, your need 15-20hrs to get into, UI feels worse than fallout to me, just look at the title screen menu... I dont want to mention anymore.    … Expand

My wife also plays and at first she was more skeptical, now it has turned into all she has played since early access. Anyone review bombing this or giving negative reviews is most likely doing so out of spite or hasn't played.

    Bethesda makes Bethesda games. All of their open world games be it Skyrim, Fallout or now Starfield have some similar mechanics that will translate from one game to the next depending on the setting. I feel that they did a phenomenal job of taking those mechanics and updating them for this release.

    Crafting: Spacesuit and Weapon modification, Outpost and Ship construction, Research and Pharma terminals. The crafting will have you consumed with wanting to do more and more. The ship building is especially addicting as it can be seen as a mobile base. I'm just about to crack into outpost building but from what I've seen as what's possible in game, it looks equally addicting.

    Main and Side Quests: I wish I could tell you my opinion on the main questline, but I keep getting pulled away by bounty hunting, side quests, getting kidnapped in someone else's ship, etc that each day I log in it feels like I'm playing a whole new game. I had the same experience in Skyrim, but where I could do a couple side quests, do some adventure then touch the main story line in skyrim, I find myself devoting whole play sessions to other stuff I discover. For example, last night I wanted to start building an outpost, but then I discovered I can go to the outskirts of the main city, New Atlantis. While I was out there I got ambushed by Pirates, found an autonomous farm and a smuggler ship waiting for a package mule. Suffice it to say, I did not end up building my outpost, but I had one heck of a time.

    Combat: Both On foot and in space combat is greatly improved over previous Bethesda titles (on foot). I am astonished by how much improvement they have done to this system. Combat feels engaging and rewarding. Adding in the Jump pack and you getting verticality over enemies can put a smile on your face quick. Additionally the varying states of gravity can spice up combat really quick. One time i was on a disabled ship and the ship's gravity kept turning on and off, meaning stuff was floating and falling everywhere. You also can feel the benefit of additional traits, skill unlocks and buffs provided by each weapon. I spend a lot of time in Star Citizen so I can tell you that Starfield is not a space sim, however what it does get right is that spaceship combat does feel exciting. Blowing up an enemy ship feels very rewarding with hits to the hull flaking off pieces and modules; but disabling someone's ship and boarding it is way more fun. After you board, the crew of the ship is waiting for your attack in pockets of the ship, with your job being to clear it, take any valuable items and get out.

    Looting: Sometimes i go out and loot what I need, other's I go out and loot what I want. There is so many items to find, and you can use these items to decorate your room, ship and outpost and everything has 100% persistence. At the stage I'm at, I feel like I'm still discovering new weapons even after having discovered a ton.

    Graphics: Graphically I am ultra impressed with the fidelity and detail given to each weapon, suit, ship and interior. This has to be one of Bethesda's crowing achievements in open world games with the amount of attention given in every space. Even things like computer stations that aren't functional will have you getting in close to see what is going on. Graphical performance has been pretty great for my machine, but I am running a fairly high end rig. I have also played on XBox and while the increased frame rate on PC is awesome, running at 30fps playing from the couch can be just as enjoyable.

    Bugs: I know some have said they have experienced a few, I however have not.

    Improvements I'd like to see: While I'm giving the game a 10/10, it isn't without a few things I would like to see added or improved. These are relatively small items and doesn't ruin the experience.
    -Ground vehicles need to be added for exploration. Even if it's a relatively slow lunar rover style buggy from the Apollo missions, it would certainly help and could even expand cargo space on exploration hikes.
    -Optimization (PC): The game has been optimized well for AMD cards, however I am running an NVIDIA card and would love to see native DLSS support.
    -In Game Radio: Look I know it's not fallout, but with the SSNN (Settled Systems News Network) being a thing, I don't see why I can't tune into it in my ship where right now I have to go to an SSNN kiosk and listen.

    Summary: Starfield is one of my favorite games of all time. I've longed to get lost in another Skyrim/FO type experience, now I am. I will be deep in the Starfield for years to come.    … Expand

    Starfield is basically a glorified mod of a Fallout 3 or a Skyrim.

    The game feels 10 years old with decent graphics. Most characters are ugly as ass though. The "Space" part is only superficial : you don't take off, you don't flight where you want. It's more like a mini-game next to the usual formula. The story is pretty underwhelming.

    The story is pretty underwhelming. Don't expect anything as epic as in Skyrim or any of the older games.
    The way it starts is basically : hey you, here is a ship, take the keys and go there. You have no choice in the matter. The writers have obviously never heard of the "Hero's Journey".

    Lame.

    There is a big "political" controversy with the game but it feels a bit exaggerated.
    I don't mind the pronoun choice and the body type 1 & 2 in the character creation as I've not been bothered with it after that point.

    That being said, an overwhelming amount of your interaction with though/team boss characters will be with women. Men are a rarity in space apparently and it feels very unnatural. I guess the game is pretty woke.    … Expand

    Después de estar 3 años esperando a que salga por fin un juego decente en Xbox, y nos llevamos otra desilusión. El juego es un fiasco, nada de lo que nos vendieron. Menudo humazo.

    I loved Fallout 3 and 4. This new Bethesda game has all that immersive environment that Fallout had. I really liked the Starfield graphics. The sound is also very immersive.

    I would love to recommend this game. But a mix of the performance problems(Load screens). I have a high end PC and this game just doesn't function well. In the end the game offers little in inovation. Would recoommend skyrim over this. There is no open space. Everything is recycled and re-used.

    And it's worth $200 million? Have you been doing this for 7 years? This game is directly from 2013(2003). This is another Skyrim, but now not only with guns, but also in space. True, there is no space here, the plot is boring, the gameplay is boring, the graphics are at the level of 2015, there is no optimization, and Intel ARC cards have not even been heard of. Shame.

    The stories you experiencd with the main Quest, faction quests and side quests. But the game is not perfect it had some cracks in its armor.
    It throws alot at you right away and dosent really explain much in the beginning and it can be intimidating therefore making the opening hours a little slow but you will have your "everything clicks" moment if you continue down the main Quest for a little while.
    the space map can take a little while to get used to, random NPCs look ugly the space travel might not be what some expect.
    Space travel is more mass effect then it is
    no man's sky
    But still the universe bethesda has built is an immersive one, it is bethesdas most polished game to date and honestly possibly their best game to date.
    If you like western RPGs and older Bethesda games you owe it to yourself to give the game a try    … Expand

    One more game that does not survive the enormous hype with which has been promote it. As a sci-fi fan it has left me totally disappointed. Story without soul, repetitive missions, mediocre game play, empty and lifeless worlds, a huge amount of bugs and horrendous graphics that is unreal how the people justify with the premise that mods will fix it. Not recommendable

    I've been having a really good time with this game and in most situations, the graphics are gorgeous.

    There ARE a lot of issues with it if you went into it with certain expectations. The performance is not that great, and it really should have shipped with DLSS3 and Frame Generation. Using the mod that was put out, on my 4070ti at 3440x1440 I never dip below 75fps on Ultra at full resolution scale.

    Yes, it's not as open as they lead you to believe, yes, the pronouns are stupid, but I personally didn't even notice it because they defaulted to the male character I made; hell, I didn't even realize I could change them at first.

    What the game desperately needs is a vehicle you can use on a planet's surface to make you want to go explore the structures off in the distance. I sure hope there is some sort of buggy or land-speeder DLC. Spending 5 - 10 minutes just walking through a baren wasteland to get to one of the structures off in the distance is pretty boring.

    The gunplay feels good, and the AI is leaps and bounds better than previous Bethesda titles.

    I do feel like there are a bit too many restrictions placed on ship building and it becomes tedious swapping out and removing parts constantly just to get the errors to go away.

    Being on PC, I am hoping most of my complaints will be solved with the help of mods, so it probably is getting an extra point as a result. I would say for the general public, a 6 is an accurate score and that's disappointing for a game that we all waited so long to play.

    In conclusion, I know the devs put their heart and soul into this game and it does show under the complaints. It's just such a massive game that unless we wanted to wait another 1-2 years, this was probably the best we could have gotten. Bethesda can and hopefully will still fix the performance issues on PC and hopefully release some sort of free vehicle DLC. I think those two points would go a long way in making a lot of people enjoy this game a lot more. Buy the game but don’t do it under the belief that it’s the second coming or going to change your life.    … Expand

    I've played it since september's 1st. Awesome game. Really a masterpiece that brings on the screens of PC and XBOX the final experience for those of us that in 80s and 90s grew up with the dream of space and science fiction. A great exclusive from Microsoft!

    I fell in love with Starfield. It's my cup of sci-fi and I can't wait to spend the next thirty, fifty, maybe seventy hours here. I enjoy the exploration, the shootouts, the art style, the ship building, and the diverse worlds. I gratefully acknowledge the good optimization and the absence of major bugs. But I can't overlook the flaws. There are bad animations, ugly faces and repetitive moments.[Issue#329]

    In a year dominated by sequels to franchise favorites, there was a hope that Starfield would carve its own path to success. While the team at Bethesda should be commended for taking such a big swing, there’s no denying that the game doesn’t feel like a cohesive work. Maybe continued support and future sequels will make something more meaningful out of a work that is clearly deeply enamored with both science fiction and space exploration. Unforunately, this first launch has had far more mixed results than desired.
